is Sarah-Jane Moody (the Dolly Ranchers) on vox, ukulele, electric guitar, harmonicas, junkyard percussion, and maybe some other things, and Jeremy Bleich (birth, Circus Luminous) on melodica, oud, toy piano, guitar, bass, bells, objects, and most definitely many other things. Incorporating a wide palette of forms and instrumentation both ancient and modern, GoGoSnapRadio creates an eclectic sound with trashy tenderness, rock n' roll tendencies, and bitterly sincere lyrical heart. Bleich's odd metered ear and background in classical composition, mixed with his road dog sense of contemporary soundscapes, add to Moody's country-ish twanged out vocals, and gritty poetic rhythmic stylings. Their sound is unashamed and honest, and they channel super heros whenever possible.
